Learn how fire ground size-up can make your operations efficient,
effective, and safe. Fire officers have many decisions to make when

between life and death. Pre-incident information combined with your
on-scene size-up give the fire officer the advantage of knowing
what to expect when arriving and operating at a fire scene. In this
definitive guide to fireground size-up, author Michael A. Terpak
gives fire fighters an in-depth and expanded review of 15 size-up
points to help them make decisions that are efficient, effective,
and safe. In each different type of building referenced, Terpak
covers the following points: Construction concerns Occupancy
